There was another study, that I posted earlier, that said that phytoplankton decrease in areas of low nutrients were exacerbated by increased ocean acidity. So is it possible that low nutrients in the water combined with increased acidity is a double whammy on phytoplankton, which leads to increased CO2 and increased ocean acidity? The study suggested that, which lead me to the conclusion that we have an evil feedback mechanism in place. Perhaps you are right about the prime root cause of phytoplankton decreasing. But now that the feedback loop has begun, it's speeding up all the other causes of CO2 increase, but reducing one of the main CO2 sinks in the earth's natural processes.
